| No. 15 BYU blocks kick to top Washington (AP) |
| Jake Locker was crestfallen. The sophomore quarterback did everything he could to give Washington a chance for an upset of No. 15 BYU and wound up apologizing for the Huskies' loss. Locker was penalized for celebrating what could have been a game-tying touchdown run with 2 seconds left and BYU's Jan Jorgensen blocked the 35-yard extra-point attempt to help the Cougars hold to a 28-27 victory... -- read full article |

| Gators end 6-game skid to Miami, 26-3 (AP) |
| Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow may never play Miami again, and that's just fine with him. He got his victory against the Hurricanes and earned a spot in the annals of this storied and once-bitter instate rivalry. Tebow was good early and even better late, throwing two touchdown passes and helping the fifth-ranked Gators snap a six-game losing streak against Miami with a 26-3 victory Saturday night... -- read full article |

| Buckeyes survive scare from Ohio, 26-14 (AP) |
| After barely beating Ohio University, No. 3 Ohio State was not a happy football team. In fact, the sluggish win felt more like a loss. "That was pathetic. It was a pathetic performance," Buckeyes wide receiver Brian Hartline said after the Buckeyes rallied in the fourth quarter for 26-14 win over plucky Ohio, a 33 1/2 -point underdog. -- read full article |

| Skip Holtz followed his biggest coaching victory at East Carolina with an even more impressive one.

| Hanna postpones Georgetown-Howard game (AP) |
| The first meeting between Washington, D.C., schools Georgetown and Howard was postponed Saturday because of Tropical Storm Hanna. The game has been rescheduled to Sunday.

| ASU looks to continue Stanford mastery (AP) |
| Arizona State has swept the last two games against Stanford by a combined 79-6. Coach Dennis Erickson thinks that's irrelevant as his 15th-ranked Sun Devils prepare to face the Cardinal in Sun Devil Stadium on Saturday night. "They have just improved in every area from a year ago," said Erickson, who led ASU to a 41-3 romp in Palo Alto last season. -- read full article |

| Spread offense working early for Auburn (AP) |
| Southern Miss and No. 9 Auburn both finally took the wraps off their vaunted new offenses last week, trotting out new quarterbacks and mostly skipping those time-consuming huddles. And proving they still can be dominant running teams. The Tigers (1-0), at least, have much more to prove. The Golden Eagles (1-0) raced to a school-record 633 total yards against Louisiana-Lafayette with a solid passing... -- read full article |

| Ohio excited to play at Ohio State (AP) |
| This is not just another game for Kris Luchsinger. Or, for that matter, a lot of his Ohio teammates. The Bobcats' defensive end, a native of Columbus, had to fight his emotions while casually discussing his team's trip to play No. 3 Ohio State on Saturday. "Growing up I've always been surrounded by Ohio State fans. -- read full article |

| Wake carries weight of struggling ACC (AP) |
| Wake Forest, Atlantic Coast Conference savior. While that sentence would have drawn laughter just a few years ago when the Demon Deacons were routinely scheduled for homecoming, it's now reality. With the ACC reeling from losses last week by favorites Clemson and Virginia Tech, and with Florida State and Miami in down cycles, the 20th-ranked Demon Deacons will carry the league's banner into... -- read full article |

| Oklahoma coach Stoops wary of Cincinnati (AP) |
| Even growing up in Ohio, Bob Stoops admits he never paid much attention to the football program at the University of Cincinnati. In Youngstown, he was caught between Cleveland and Pittsburgh and his mind seldom wandered to the opposite end of the state. "Youngstown's a long way from Cincinnati," said Stoops, who is Oklahoma's head coach. -- read full article |

| Georgia to do some scouting vs. C. Mich. (AP) |
| While Georgia figures to get another easy win on Saturday, the kind that didn't do them much good in the rankings this past week, the game against Central Michigan could serve a very useful purpose down the road. The No. 2 Bulldogs will get a chance to do some advance scouting for Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow. -- read full article |

| Davis' 4 TD passes lead Ball St. by Navy (AP) |
| An ex-Marine helped Ball State's defense scuttle the Navy. Nate Davis passed for 326 yards and four touchdowns, but it was Brandon Crawford and the rest of the Cardinals' defense that repeatedly came up with the big plays in the second half of a 35-23 victory over the Midshipmen on Friday night. "It's a great feeling, but at the same time I had to let my teammates know what's expected of them,"... -- read full article |

| West Virginia to face E. Carolina, Hanna (AP) |
| With West Virginia's speedy offense coming to town, Skip Holtz jokingly asked East Carolina's groundskeepers to leave the sprinklers on at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium and turn the grass field into a mud pit. That might not be necessary. Tropical Storm Hanna could take care of it for him. The rain-producing storm system expected to strike the North Carolina coast hours before Saturday's kickoff might... -- read full article |

| Gators try to snap long skid vs. 'Canes (AP) |
| Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow is too young to have witnessed much of the history of the Miami-Florida rivalry, and the teams don't play often enough for him to hear about it, either. What he does know -- maybe all he needs to know -- is that the Gators haven't beaten the Hurricanes since 1985, a six-game losing streak in an on-again, off-again series that has Florida's star quarterback and his... -- read full article |

| Ohio State coach Jim Tressel said tailback Chris "Beanie" Wells will not play when the third-ranked Buckeyes take on Ohio on Saturday. Wells injured his right foot in last weekend's 43-0 victory over Youngstown State. He has not practiced with the team this week and has spent much of the time wearing a protective boot. -- read full article |
